Detailed explanation-1: -canine tooth, also called cuspid or eye tooth, in mammals, any of the single-cusped (pointed), usually single-rooted teeth adapted for tearing food, and occurring behind or beside the incisors (front teeth).
Detailed explanation-2: -The canines (or cuspids, meaning a tooth with a single point) are on either side of the incisors. They are for holding and tearing food. Premolars (bicuspids) and molars have a series of elevations (points or ‘cusps’) that are used for breaking up particles of food.
Detailed explanation-3: -Canines are the four sharper, pointed teeth on each side of the incisors. Canines are very similar to incisors in that they also help with biting and tearing food. Additionally, canines help guide the mouth closed when the upper and lower jaw come together.
